I love this because of the 3 crystal balls at the top of the pole... they are elegant and pretty. The lamp has a fairly small base, so if you're fitting it in a small space, that will work well, but it does make it just a tiny bit wobbly... not an issue if it's in a corner or you're just a little careful with it. Also be careful of the shade... it's seems to be some kind of plastic and cane out of the box dented... couldn't be straightened out. They were minor but noticeable so I bought another shade and it's fine. The real draw is the crystal at the top. Basically it's pretty enough I overlooked the other issues!
